[cool][#0000ff]I (mistakenly) believed that proposing a smaller limit to begin would be an easier pill to swallow for any of those opposed. The 10 fish number was what I suggested, in order to offer a compromise. Unfortunately, the opposition is more on a matter of principle than on whether or not the perch population can withstand some harvest.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]Believe me, I would like to see the standard limit too, but I am a patient person. I believe that if the "biologicals" next year show that there is still a lot of recruitment and no decline in numbers that it will be easier to adjust the limit upward.[/#0000ff]
